Just like you lap up whatever nonsense is spouted by Hirono, Harris, and Feinstein.
Oh, and don't forget your dear leader Ellison - everyone's favorite wife beater.

No, it's not just like that. Stop lying. Nobody cares about Ellison, stop trying to make that happen.

Oh, and it's funny and sad that, in trying to justify yourself, you have to denigrate 3 women. You do you.

Ellison should be disowned by the Democrats. I don't care for guys who beat up women.

As far as male Democrats who are as odious as the likes of Hirono, etc how about Spartacus Booker and the liar Blumenthal.

What is so "odious" about Hirono? She seems pretty milquetoast, and prior to the Kavanaugh hearings, obscure. Does being a woman make her odious?

Conservatives are generally afraid of women, but ones who speak their mind and demand that men do their part to combat sexual violence are utterly terrifying. Look at just the three man allegations about Brett Kavanaugh: in each, at least one other boy/man was present and could have said something in defense of the victim, especially in Ms. Ramirez’s case. No one spoke up.

Agree! Conservative men expect women to shut up and mind their place. Conservative women support this subservient mindset. Conservative women are doormats who “stand by their man.”

"faux rape rage"

You are disgusting. Truly. Karma has a date with you.

You guys are missing the point:

It was known from the start that the mid-terms were going to hinge on turn out. The Democrats were really fired up about voting for the various reasons that others have cited. The Republicans were fairly complacent. What has turned things around is the Kavanaugh fracas and the belief by Republicans that he has been hounded and pilloried by Democrats - it does not matter whether this is valid.

I think the Democrats will still take the House but the Senate, at best, will remain in Republican hands and they may even increase their majority.

The thing about Trump is that despite all his nuttiness, he is very savvy politically. He really does not care if Kavanaugh goes down which is why he has stuck with him. If he goes down, you can be sure that he will exploit it to the hilt and enrage Republicans even more and you will likely see a massive turn-out in November. If Kavanaugh is confirmed, Trump will brag about it and drive Republicans to vote because he will say that without a solid majority in the Senate, other appointments are in jeopardy and will cite the Kavanaugh experience.

Democratic incumbent senators in red states are in a bind; their best bet - at least some of them - would be to support Kavanaugh's confirmation. Voting against his confirmation will jeopardize their reelection prospects. Voting in his favor may just possibly help.

In some ways conservative women horrify me the most. They are so brainwashed but they will argue to the death that they it is RIGHT and JUST that women be subjugated. And all the wailing right now about how #metoo or the discussions of sexual assaults are bad for the men in their lives. Oh my poor husband. Oh my poor sons. The world has turned against them. Blah blah blah. It's like a twisted form of Stockholm syndrome. And the conviction that they are so steeped in Christian values, but the kindness and love Jesus spoke of is only reserved for white people who look and think like they do.

Hirono is as dumb as they come. All she does is read whatever her staff has prepared. At least the others - Harris, Feinstein, etc - are capable of thinking on their feet and asking follow up questions.

Wow. Bigoted comments about white people AND conservative women AND Christians, all in one post.

Would you be OK with bigoted comments against black people AND liberal women AND Muslims?

So depressing that supporting a man so clearly unfit for the Supreme Court, regardless of the sexual assault allegation, is required to appease idiot voters.

We need more HISTORY, ECONOMICS, AND CIVICS taught in our schools so voters aren't so damn gullible. It's all about emotion. They might as well be electing the prom queen.

If being against the mistreatment of other human beings (be it subjugation of women, mistreatment of POC, mistreatment of migrants) and willing to speak against those who try to justify it with a perverted version of Christianity makes me a bigot, then so be it.

I'm happy to hear other opinions about the economy (that don't involve oppression of others), education (that don't involve oppression of others), etc. etc. etc., but I'm not going to sit back and suffer the idiocy of people who are racists or sexists in the name of listening to other "opinions".

The twisted pretzel of conservative defense that being intolerant of intolerance makes you intolerant is ludicrous. Save it.
